I've been enjoying my summer so far, and I'm really disappointed that I have about three weeks left until I go back to school. But this semester I'm going to be working on my nursing prereqs, so I'm very excited about that! Last year I spent a lot of time thinking that I didn't want to study to become a pharmacist and that I wanted to do something where I get to directly interact with people. I love helping people so I finally decided on going into nursing after my second semester of college! Now I'm really excited to go back and I'm happy because there are a lot of options after I become an RN if I choose to continue going to school. I'm just glad I figured things out during my freshman year of college. I'm a little bit behind and I think I might have to take an extra semester to graduate on time, but I'm hopeful that I can play catch up this year and apply for the nursing program next fall!

I'm going to try to be more active on this blog too. I already have a couple of DIY posts for you guys that I'm working on right now!

I know that for some of us school is approaching soon. I just want to share with you guys a really helpful service from Amazon that I've been using for the past couple of weeks to order things for school such as textbooks, notebooks, laptop accessories, etc. If you're going back to school soon you probably have a school email address that you're given. Using that email address you can sign up for Amazon Prime for free! You get your first six months free which means free 2-day shipping on all eligible products. This is insanely useful because instead of waiting a week to a month sometimes you get your products in two business days. I have ordered so much stuff and every time it has been delivered on time. I really recommend you guys sign up for this service since it's free. You can go here to sign up or click below!

To ensure that you don't get charged after your 6 months are over you can cancel your service immediately. If you need help doing so, let me know! I just cancelled my future service today so I will have until February 2nd, 2015 and then my free Prime membership will expire.

To sign up all you need is a school email address that ends in .edu. Once you sign up they will send you a confirmation link to your school email address that you click on and ta-da! Your membership is activated. In addition to free 2-day shipping you also get many college student deals, plus if/when you do decide to pay for your membership students get 50% off making it only $49 for year-long membership. And if you don't want to pay for your membership, that's fine, but you should still sign up to get the free 6 months! You have nothing to lose and honestly it's incredibly useful. If you're in high school this is still really useful. I know when I was in high school we were given school email addresses. You might as well make use of it!

So I went shopping last week and stopped by Victoria's Secret/PINK to get my free no show panty but I ended up buying a bunch of stuff. I'm really happy with my purchase though!

I ended up spending $80 total and they were having one of those deals where if you spend a certain amount you get something free with your purchase. This time it was a free getaway bag if you spend $75+. The getaway bag is retailed at $99 so it's definitely worth it if you're already buying stuff from them.

I got two lightly lined bras for $42 and my free no show panty ($9.50 at full price). If you don't feel like buying two they are $31 each I believe. The lightly lined bras from PINK are my favorite bras! They're incredibly comfortable and very smooth. I used to only buy push up bras but I've been transitioning to lightly lined/unlined bras. They are the most comfortable fit in my opinion! If you haven't signed up for PINK nation yet, you definitely should! They often mail you coupons for free panties which is always nice. There's no such thing as too much underwear in my opinion.

Next thing I got was a backpack for $50, which yes I know is pretty pricey. The most I've ever spent for a backpack before was $40, but I really liked the style of this one so I went for it. I loooooooove anything leopard print, I think it's incredibly sassy and cute! This backpack has three compartments and a laptop sleeve on the inside of the main compartment. There's a lot of space and I'm very excited to use this for my first year of college!

Like I said, if you spend $75+ you get a free getaway bag! I really love this bag; I think it's insanely useful! You could use it for vacations, the gym, sleepovers, etc. I used it for camp and it fit all my toiletries (shampoo, conditioner, contact lens solution, glasses, etc.), a comforter, sheets, and 4 days/3 nights worth of clothes, so yes it is very big. I wouldn't ever buy it for $99 but since I was already buying the other stuff it was really nice to get this as a bonus.

Well that's it for this haul, I'm in the process of editing my next haul post (yeah, I shop a lot for a broke college kid lol). I hope you guys liked this post! Let me know what you think in the comments.

So I was commissioned to make these shorts for a classmate last summer and I've finally gotten around to making a DIY post on them. These shorts are super easy to make, all you need are a few things!

Materials:

pair of white shorts

blue and red fabric paint

paint brush

(optional) masking tape

star/square studs

Basically tape off the areas you want to keep white. All areas marked with an A are the areas I taped off to keep white. All areas marked with a B I used the red fabric paint and all areas marked C I used the blue fabric paint on. After you let the paint dry you can then add whatever studs you want! This is actually a really easy project to do. If you try it, let me know what your results are!

I don't know if you guys have been keeping up (since I've been on and off) but a couple months ago I got some new circle lenses! Today I have a review for the Geo Tri Color brown lenses! I already have the grey pair, which I really love, so I was super excited to try these!

Color: 5/5
These are so so pretty! I fell in love with the color right when I put them on. These are definitely more on the natural side too.
Comfort: 4/5
Very comfortable. I wear them for maybe 6-8 hrs a day and don't really need eye drops.
Enlargement: 0/5
Being 14.00mm, they really don't enlarge.
Overall: 4/5

I love these lenses so much! They're one of my favorite pairs I've owned so far. You can get them here.

Lately I've been seeing things that make me say "wow I really want that, I should totally save up for it!" but when I finally get enough money for those things, I spend it on other stuff because I've forgotten what I wanted in the first place! I think it's great to have things down on a list because it helps you keep track of where you are and it's like having mini goals! So here are some things I'm currently saving up for!

omg there's so much to love about this pair of shoes for me. It's black. It's comfortable. It's so versatile. And it's VELVET! I'm so in love with velvet anything. I can see myself wearing these with so many things in my closet right now.

I love this case so much. I'm really in love with the skull, but I also really like the floral design in the background. It takes away a little bit of the creepiness the skull gives off without ruining the design.

Hi guys!! It's been so long! I wasn't expecting to drop blogging after starting school. But it happened. What can you do, you know ~. Anyways I'm back with a short little post showing you guys some of the things I've bought from eBay since August.

First of all, when I got my new phone I went a little crazy for cases. I've always wanted an iPhone for a) the internet and b) the phone cases! So I kind of bought a whole bunch. This isn't even all of it, but since this is specifically an ebay post I'll just show the ones I got from there. And then I also bought a pair of bows, a backpack, and a case for my new iPad mini (which I'm in love with. I'm working on an iPad/iPhone apps post for you guys)!!

Hope you guys enjoy ~ I've included links to the exact items I bought (or at least the ones still up) so you guys can check them out on ebay! If there aren't any links try searching for them. Sorry I can't provide links to all! eBay doesn't give me access to all the past items I've bought...

pastel pink KoKo Cat iPhone 4 case

baby pink KiKi Kitty iPhone 4 case

bread scented bun iPhone 4 case. very fragile. mine is ripped in 3 places because I wasn't careful with it.

bumper cases. these are actually really protective (around the sides).

My name is Meghan and I like to eat and shop. Instead of scarfing down my food right when it gets to my table, I have trained myself to have patience and take pictures of it so you guys will probably see a lot of food pictures here. Often times when I go shopping I hear a little voice in my head saying "treat yo self!" Needless to say, sometimes I come back with more than I had intended on getting. Drake and Fetty Wap are very important to me, so I would appreciate it if you'd respect that. I really enjoy making new friends on here, so please don't be afraid to start a conversation!
